Museo del Juguete Antiguo México

This guide to the Museo del Juguete Antiguo México follows architect Roberto Shimizu, raised in the Doctores neighborhood above his parents' stationery and candy shop, who began keeping the toys sold over that counter around age ten and never stopped. It traces the collection's growth through his school years and career, filling trunks, rooms, and eventually an apartment building on Doctor Olvera street, and the wrestling mask his widow donated that once belonged to the luchador El Santo. Look for the case of masked-wrestler gear near the stairs as you start through the four floors.
